Abstrakt: The sex‐gender hypothesis predicts that males will perform better on items containing masculine content and girls will score higher on feminine content items. The hypothesis is tested with data from a training study intended to improve the ability of 11‐year olds to design a controlled experiment. The findings provide weak support for hypothesis. Implications for the assessment of instructional programmes are identified. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
